How to dress your child …for sleep

Around this time of year, I get LOTS of questions about the best way to dress babies and toddlers for sleep during the winter months. Specifically, what kind of sleep sack to use and how many layers should baby wear under it.

It can be super tempting to overdress our littles in all the cozy things, because they’re so stinkin’ cute when they’re all snuggled in - and it's COLD outside! But did you know that babies who get too warm at night are at a greater risk for SIDS, and toddlers and big kids who overheat during sleep are more likely to have nightmares or night terrors?

With that in mind, there are some great options for kids of all ages that are perfectly snuggly for the cold weather that's coming, but won't cause them to overheat while they sleep.
